There is something about this fish that is very appealing to fishermen. Maybe because it is what I call simple fishing, there is no complicated rigs or approach, it is low tech vertical fishing. Find green crabs, and a rock pile and you are there. And the hook set can be maddening at times...this creates more laughs on board. Theses are not giant fish but they can be a ball when the bite gets going. A 10+ lber is a special catch that you will remember for a long time. I love it and look forward to going each year (esp in the fall)
Personally, I love a cold winter day in Jan/Feb and my wife brings me a large hot bowl of tog and scallop chowder with some home made bread...I am telling you sitting next to the fire watching the snow and the wind eating a bowl of this stuff...you feel like a king.
It is starting to slow down here now. You can easily get your limit but the bite is not as furious as it was a few weeks back. I find when the water hits the 40's it starts to slow in the fall. But you can still catch them.
